Very nice fish. Been here twice; the owner also has a seafood importer business I believe hence the quality/freshness of the ingredients. Get the fried octopus rings and the sea bass salad with truffles. Their dishes are usually quite simple but alway taste great. I would give a 5 star if their dessert weren't so mediocre; and by mediocre i'm... More

Really enjoyed this restaurant. Set along the river it was about a 15 - 20 minute walk from the Helmhaus Hotel. Italian food with an emphasis on fish in a lovely modern setting. Nicely spaced tables, comfortable chairs, soft lighting, moderate noise. Excellent service, very knowledgeable about the wine list. Nicely paced service. Portions ample but can enjoy a 3... More

It is a restaurant with excellent food and service! If possible book tables overlooking the river. The dinner was delicious but the desserts are not that goodd. Prepare your credit card because it is expensive but worth it

I spent a wonderful evening at this little gem beside the river right smack in the middle of Zurich. The service was excellent with enough time spent to serve and to replenish glasses. The menu is dominated by seafood and is varied enough for the most fussiest of eaters. The wine list was navigated with trust of our excellent waiter... More

This is not a cheap place, but great italian food, good value or money in zurich's standard. Specialty here is seafood, but other choices also seemed good. Among the Bindella group Italian restarants in ZUrich, I found here the best so far. Service was nothing notably special, but was all good I think. I will come back to this place... More

My business contract picked the place for dinner which was opposite the river, it was a 10 min walk from the HBF. The restaurant had a warm and cozy ambience and it was packed. I had fish soup and cod fish with ice-cream for dessert. Topped off the meal with a chardonnay. The fish was fresh and well cooked. Soup... More

Loved the location, service and great seafood dishes. An expensive outing, so a business trip makes it easier to digest (like most of Zurich).
